the anime is fantasy theme, with people having these miniature statues in which they use in combination with a chant..and it turns into an armor and mount kinda thing for them...each person has their own one..the story begins with these evil guys turning the god athena into stone, and killing all the good followers of athena...and the main character's best friend i think turned into a bad guy...the anime kinda looks like gundam with all those armor stuff..this anime is REALLY old..probably at least 8yrs+...saw this a long time ago..thanks for the help!
